Speaker Session
Join Temenos’ Chief Product Officer, Sai Rangachari, as he takes the stage alongside top banking executives from Lloyds Banking Group and Encompass Corporation to debate the evolution of business models in an era defined by digital acceleration and customer empowerment.
Date: 2 December 2025 | Time: 14:30
Stage: Blue Stage
With shifting customer expectations, competitive pressures, and rapid technological change, banks must redefine what sustainable success looks like. This session will examine:
• Which banking models are best positioned for long-term resilience?
• Will fintech and big tech partnerships become game-changers or competitive threats?
• How can banks future-proof themselves against disruptive forces?
Temenos Roundtable
On 3 December, Temenos is hosting an exclusive payments roundtable, “Tokenisation and the Future of Banking: Survival strategies for incumbents in the era of digital money”
As tokenisation moves from proof of concept to live deployment, the implications for traditional banking are becoming clear. The shift toward digital assets, programmable money and tokenised deposits represents both an architectural and strategic challenge one that will test how effectively established institutions can adapt their business models, infrastructure and mindset to a fundamentally different financial ecosystem.
Across the industry, the leading conversation is no longer if tokenisation will reshape banking, but how quickly incumbents can modernise to remain competitive. The convergence of payments, securities, and liquidity management into unified “money movement” platforms is forcing leadership teams to make bold decisions about technology renewal, balance sheet efficiency and client experience.
This off-the-record roundtable, hosted by the Financial Times in partnership with Temenos, will convene senior executives from leading banks to explore what survival and leadership look like in the era of digital money. The discussion will be led by a global expert in payments and modernisation, drawing on first-hand experience supporting banks through this transition.
Discussion points:
• What are the credible survival and success strategies for traditional banks as tokenisation becomes mainstream?
• How can banks integrate tokenised money and assets within existing infrastructure without adding complexity or risk?
• Where are the first commercial use cases emerging — and what will distinguish early winners from fast followers?
• How can leadership teams balance innovation with regulation, risk, and long-term trust?
• What will define the next generation of “trusted intermediaries” in a programmable financial system?
